By the way, I just tried to flash an oldie 16F84A with the simple=20
b84a-2.hex file (blink-a-led sample for 84A from Wouter=B4s page)| and go=
t=20
this for answer:
|
C:\MCHIP>xwisp.py target f84a go a2.hex
XWisp 1.08, command line mode
Traceback (most recent call last):

Not encouraging, eh?

Then I tried it with the Xwisp2 but got the same problem as when I tried=20
with the other chip: the program just hanged and I had to terminate it.
